Title :
The application of real-time image processing to self-guided vehicles operating in a hostile environment
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
The development of a robust real-time image processing system for self-guided vehicles operating in a hostile environment is described. The system is tolerant to variations in light level caused by changes in viewing geometry and has been successfully tested under a wide range of contrast and signal to noise levels
